Medicaid work
$0 in 2018
Medicaid paid $0 for 38 billed services this clinician did in 2018, up to 19 people in a month for one service.
Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.
| Short return visit | 38 | $0 |
| 2018 | 38 | 1 | 19 | $0 |
Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid
$219
Pharmacies billed $219 in 2024.
This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.
Opioids were 0% of their Part D prescriptions (0 of 38) in 2024. Too few prescriptions to compare fairly with other clinicians.
38 generic and 0 brand-name prescriptions · $219 in drug cost.
Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.
| Amitriptyline | 12 | $89 | $7 |
